AHA Programming 💡

Read Original

This blog post critiques the rigid adherence to the DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) principle and introduces AHA Programming, which stands for 'Avoid Hasty Abstractions.' The author argues that while code duplication can be problematic, creating the wrong abstraction is often worse. The article advocates for preferring duplication over a bad abstraction and optimizing code for change, drawing on wisdom from other developers like Sandi Metz.
